DRACO MALFOY ⟡

▹      the hufflepuff was handsome. you liked the way his hair fell slightly onto his face and his smile was incredibly charming. but he was bland.

smiling politely, you tilt your face up towards him as he wipes off some butterbeer foam off your nose. as much as you will it to happen, no butterflies emerge.

"this has been so lovely. can i see you again soon?" he asks, looking at you so hopefully that you don't have the heart to reject him just yet.

"oh.. yes, soon." you say, as convincing as possible. elated, the boy practically skips away back to his common room and you bite on your lip, guiltily.

when you turn around to start the walk back to your dorm, you almost collide head on to draco malfoy's chest. his very broad chest, you note.

"oh draco! you scared me." you yelp, looking up at him. you start to smile at him but his angry face and twisted brows stop you short.

"who was that?" he asks. a muscle in his jaw twitches and you can't help but notice how sharp his jawline is.

you and draco had been friends for a long time, since start of first year. you never could quite ignore how attractive he was to you, but you never thought he would think of you as anything other than a sister.

as the years progressed, you couldn't deny the tension between you two, and you held out hope something could happen. but with his playboy ways and cavalier attitude, you thought you would finally stop holding out for him. hence, the date with the hufflepuff.

"umm... just a hufflepuff who asked me out?" you say nervously, your sentence involuntarily ending as a question. draco's eyes seem to narrow as he looks at you.

"you two seemed close." he says icily, reaching out and brushing your nose, mocking the way the boy did just moments before. you plant your hands on your hips, starting to understand what's happening.

draco malfoy is.. jealous? you scoff and start to walk away from him. he quickly follows you in stride.

"why do you even care? i can see whoever i want." you say, closely studying his face as the same muscle twitches again. his tell tale sign of anger.

"fine. see who you want. just let it be better than some common hufflepuff." he says coldly, stopping to look at you. your anger flares up and you feel the color start to rise in your cheeks.

"oh please draco, you sleep with like ten girls a week, and yet you judge me for wanting to go out once with a perfectly nice guy? god you're unbelievable!" your chest is heaving after you finish, and draco just looks at you.

"those girls don't mean anything to me." he says simply, pausing slightly to see if you will respond. after you don't, he opens his mouth again.

"did he.. mean anything to you?" his voice is softer this time, you sense a hint of insecurity and your resolve softens.

"draco..." you pause, weighing the importance of your next words. staring up at him, you notice how he looks at you as if he's begging for you to say what he wants to hear.
